He ordered that all students wash their hands with chlorinated lime含氯石灰before and between all patient contacts. As a result, the rate fell sharply.

influenza流行性感冒A (H1N1)

Influenza A (H1N1) is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza viruses that causes regular outbreaks in pigs. People do not normally get H1N1, but human infections can and do happen. Influenza A (H1N1) viruses have been reported to spread from person-to-person, but in the past, this transmission was limited and not sustained beyond three people.

甲型流感(H1N1)是由A型流感病毒引起的呼吸性疾病，在猪群体中定期发作。人通常不会感染H1N1，但是人可以被传染，这也正是现在发生的情况。曾有甲型流感病毒(H1N1)在人际间传染的报道，但是过去发生的传染较为有限，通常不会超过3个人。 What are the symptoms?

疾病症状是怎样的？

Limited information is available at this stage. It appears that the early symptoms are similar to seasonal flu - cough, fever, sore throat, headache, runny nose, general fatigue, and muscle pains. Some patients have also had vomiting and diarrhea. Severe cases have progressed quickly (within 5 days) to a pneumonia-like illness, which involves shortness of breath and difficulty breathing.

目前相关信息比较有限。初期症状类似季节性感冒，包括咳嗽、发热、咽喉肿痛、头疼、流鼻涕、全身疲劳、以及肌肉痛。有些患者还出现呕吐和腹泻的情况。病情严重的患者迅速发展（5天内）成类似肺炎的情况，包括呼吸短促和困难。

If you or your family experience these types of symptoms, it is important to stay home from

work or school and to seek medical care, in particular, if you have recently traveled to the affected areas of if you have difficulty breathing.

如果您或您的家人出现上述症状，请不要去上班或上学，立即就诊。如果您最近曾去过疫区，或者您呼吸困难，更要特别注意。

How is this influenza A (H1N1) spreading?

甲型流感病毒(H1N1)是怎样传播的？

It is most likely spreading from person to person in the same way other flu viruses spread: through infectious respiratory droplets (droplets released when a person coughs, sneezes or talks). If these get into a healthy person's nose or mouth, they can get infected.

最有可能的人际传播方式与其他流感病毒相同：即通过传染性的呼吸飞沫（当人咳嗽、打喷嚏或说话时产生的飞沫）传播。如果飞沫进入健康人的鼻子或口腔，他们就会被传染。

Sometimes people get infected when they touch something with flu virus on it and then touch their mouth or nose. Flu virus can live on shared objects (doorknobs, keyboards, counters, etc).

有时，接触带有流感病毒的物品表面，然后又接触自己的口或鼻也会造成传染。病毒可以在共用物品表面生存（门把手、键盘、柜台等）

How can I prevent from getting sick? 怎样才能避免传染？

It is important to follow specific precautions to reduce the chance of acquiring or spreading the virus:

采取针对性的预防措施，降低患病或传染病毒的几率十分重要：

? Frequent hand washing with soap and water or with an alcohol-based hand gel 经常用肥皂和水洗手，或用酒精擦手液

? Covering the mouth when coughing or sneezing, preferably with a tissue 咳嗽或打喷嚏的时候掩住口鼻，最好是用纸巾

? Washing hands after coughing or sneezing 咳嗽或喷嚏后洗手

? Avoiding crowded areas when possible 尽可能不去人多的地方

? Wearing a surgical mask may be appropriate to prevent transmission to others and yourself 戴上口罩，避免将病毒传染

? Refrain from touching your face, and if you do, make sure your hands are clean 不要用手摸脸，如果你摸脸，一定要确保手是干净的
